QOTD - 2.28.2012

What is your favorite and least favorite thing about the area in which you currently live?

Re: QOTD - 2.28.2012

  • least favorite (micro to macro): lack of closets, school district, winter

    most favorite: it feels like home, I love this city, MI in the remaining 3 seasons is majestic.

  • Least favorite: school district

    Most favorite: walkability, neighbors, local businesses/farmers market

  • Least Favorite: Non-walkable neighborhood.  I could potentially bike to get groceries or a beer, but I think I would love a more walkable area.

    Most Favorite:  The community/safety/peacefulness of our neighborhood.  I love the peace of the country and the safety/community aspect of our little neighborhood.

  • Least favorite:  Hmmm.  This is hard.  Every time I drive to my house I think about how much I love where I live.  I will go with lack of walkability to stores and snow. 

    Most favorite: That I am within walking and biking distance to 3 lakes.  A 4 minute drive to Lake Michigan.  When I take the "slow" way home, I love looking at the huge, gorgeous houses on the lake.

  • I'm having a really hard time with this for some reason.  I feel like our area is really middle-of-the-road.  Not much I love about it but not much I hate about it.

    I guess my favorite part would be safety.

    Least favorite is that it's not close to a lake.  (So jealous of Molly!)

  • Least: I hate that its(house) falling apart and there isn't anything I can do about it.

    Most: It's close to really everything. Downtown 4 miles a way. Country like setting 6 miles away.Pretty much everything I need is with in a 10 mile radius or less. 

  • Least favorite:  Being so close to the highway (there is highway noise in our backyard), but that also is a perk; being close, so it balances out.  ;-)

    Most favorite:  Location, school district, safety, quiet neighborhood.

  • Favorite: The walkability of our neighborhood thrills me on a renewed basis every time I go somewhere. LOVE being able to access so many things on foot, within an easy mile radius!

    Least favorite: No good coffee shops in that aforementioned mile. Lame.  

  • I love our neighborhood.  It's established, small, at the end of a quiet cul-d-sac, and close to a great school.  Least favorite thing is the size of our yard.  Our house is on a fairly small lot.
